DEAR MR. GOLDSCHMID, GENERAL COUNSEL, Securities and Exchange Commission The following is a copy of a message that was posted on the Solucorp Industries thread of Silicon Investor. As the chief legal officer of the Securities and Exchange Commission, would you please tell me if you disagree with its message. If you do disagree with it, would you please tell me how so. Thank you, ______________, Citizen, US of A cc:Ricahrd Walker, Director, SEC Division of Enforcement Arthur Levitt, Jr., Chairman, Securities and Exchange Commission Janet Reno, Attorney General, U.S. Department of Justice Batman, Dark Knight of Justice ---------------------------------------------------------------------- <<JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED. THAT IS WHAT AMERICA IS ALL ABOUT>>!! HERE IS THE MOST FUNDAMENTAL REASON WHY!!!!!!!!!!!! The Law MUST provide an avenue of recourse here. Justice is blind. Even if, for the sake of illustration, we assume the worst, e.g., that SLUP did something wrong, the law must still provide an avenue to require the SEC to conclude the investigation, tell us what the investigation uncovered, and disclose to the public the evidence of the wrongful activity. ---- OTHERWISE, ASSUME THE FOLLOWING: An evil, vindictive, mean-spirited tyrant is appointed as Chairman of the SEC(Chairman X). Chairman X sets out on a personal/political vendetta ordering his henchman, The Director of the Division of Enforcement, to issue a "temporary" suspension order to a company that has done absolutely nothing wrong except having been a major contributor to Chairman X's opposing political party. The notice of suspension says that "questions have arisen about the company's statements and accounting practices". Ten days later, the price of the company's stock plummets and the SEC commences an investigation. The investigation drags on for two years and longer, without the SEC telling the public what the company did wrong. Chairman X dispatches armed agents of the FBI to harass his critics on the grounds that they have made statements that Chairman X considers to be threating. --- WHAT RECOURSE WILL THAT COMPANY HAVE IF LEGAL RECOURSE IS NOW DENIED TO SOLUCORP AND ITS SHAREHOLDERS????????? IN THE EYES OF THE LAW, THERE IS NO DISTINCTION BETWEEN THE TWO POSSIBLE SCENARIO'S!!! THE SEC MUST DISCLOSE TO THE PUBLIC WHAT SLUP DID WRONG AND THE EVIDENCE THAT SUPPORTS ITS FINDINGS -- OTHERWISE THE LIBERTY OF ALL MAY AT SOME FUTURE TIME BE DENIED........JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE DENIED!!!!!!!!!! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- !!!!!!!!!!!!THE WHOLE SI SLUPPIE NATION IS WATCHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
